Description
Stator segment for a hollow cylinder-shaped, segmented stator of an electrical machine
The invention relates to a stator segment for a hollow cylinder-shaped, segmented stator of an electrical machine, wherein the stator segment has a segment laminated core having a first edge portion and a second edge portion, which are each arranged on a segment boundary to the respective adjacent stator segment, and a central portion, which is arranged between the first edge portion and the second edge portion, and coils each having at least one groove portion, wherein the segment laminated core has radially inwardly open grooves extending in the axial direction, which are arranged offset to one another in the circumferential direction, wherein the respective groove is embodied such that two groove portions can be arranged therein one on top of the other in the radial direction with the radially inwardly arranged groove portion functioning as a top bar and the radially outwardly arranged groove portion functioning as a bottom bar, wherein the coils comprise first coils which each have two first groove portions and two winding head portions, wherein the two first groove portions of the respective first coil are connected to one another on the respective axial end face by means of the respective winding head portion, wherein the two first groove portions of the respective first coil are arranged in different grooves, which are offset with respect to one another by a number of grooves, wherein in each case two first groove portions of different first coils arranged one on top of the other in the radial direction are arranged in the grooves of the central portion, wherein in each case a first
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 2 groove portion of one of the first coils is arranged in the grooves of the respective edge portion.
The invention also relates to a hollow cylinder-shaped, segmented stator for an electrical machine having at least two stator segments of this kind. The invention also relates to an electrical machine of this kind and finally a mill or a compressor having an electrical machine of this kind.
Stators or stands of electrical machines usually consist of a laminated core and a current-carrying stator winding system, described in more detail hereinafter in conjunction with Figs 1 to 3, wherein Fig 1 shows a view in the axial direction and Fig 2 a view from radially outside.
The laminated core of the stator is, particularly from a specific electric power, constructed from a plurality of segment laminated cores 31, wherein two adjacent segment laminated cores 31 abut one another at their respective segment boundaries 32. The winding is made up of a plurality of coils 33, 39 for example as indicated in Fig 1 in the form of corded two-layer windings, wherein bar windings are also used. Each coil 33, 39 consists of parallel-guided subconductors arranged in several layers next to one another and/or one on top of the other and electrically insulated from one another. The respective coil 33, 39 has two switching ends via which the coils 33, 39 are combined to form a winding system.
Fig 2 shows an exemplary winding system. The stator comprises two laminated cores 31 lying adjacent to one another on a segment boundary 32, wherein segment-overlapping coils 39 are used, for example in the form of the split coils described in
PCT/EP2 015/07763 9 / 2014P20740WO 3 more detail below. Also provided are coils 33 which are only accommodated in one of the segment laminated cores 1.
The coil segment lying in a groove 34 of the segment laminated core 1 is called the groove side or groove portion 35, the interim section is called a winding head or winding head portion 36. Viewed in the radial direction, two groove sides 35 of different coils 33 lie one on top of the other in each groove 34. The groove side 35 lying in the groove base or in the lower groove half 37 is called the bottom bar, the groove side at the groove outlet or the upper groove half 38 is called the top bar. The groove sides 35 of a groove 34 are typically separated by a separator and the groove 34 is sealed by a wedge.
This briefly-described type of coil is shown in Fig 3 and is known as a two-layer winding, wherein such coils 33 are also called drum coils and, in the present document, as first coils. In this context, the respective coil 33 is embodied such that one of the two groove sides 35 functions as a top bar and the other of the two groove sides 35 functions as a bottom bar, as is also evident in Fig 1 so that the two-layer winding is present in the form of a standard drum coil.
The stator production process includes impregnation of the winding with impregnating resin. During this, the stator and the winding are immersed in an impregnating tank. Due to the spatial limitation on the size of the tank and the need to ensure transportability, stators with a bore diameter that exceeds a critical size are constructed in segments, as is the case, for example with ring motors. During segmented construction, the stator laminated core is produced in the form of annular segments which are assembled at the location
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 4 at which the machine is used. The number of segments depends upon the size of the machine, wherein typically four segments are provided. A respective segmented winding system is particularly desirable for stators produced by means of segmented construction. In this context, segmented winding means that that no coils covering more than one segment are used to construct the winding. The segmentation of the winding system presents a technical problem.
To date, the problem has been circumvented in that the coils covering several segments are only assembled at the site of operation of the machine. Such coils often at least partially have an elastic design to facilitate assembly. For example, the bottom bar of the respective coil covering several segments in a stator segment is pre-assembled and the segments are transported to the site of operation of the machine. Finally, during the final assembly, the top bar of the respective coil covering several segments is arranged in the respective adjacent segment in that the respective top bar is folded into the groove provided therefor. Since there is a joint between two adjacent segments, coils covering several segments are also called joint coils or, in the case of an elastic design, split coils. However, assembling coils outside the factory entails a significant amount of extra work and hence is in turn itself a significant problem.
An electrical machine with a segmented stator is disclosed in DE 10 2011 088 660 Al. EP 2 395 632 Al discloses a stator segment for a ring-shaped stator wherein a stator yoke with at least one stator tooth
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 5 protruding from the yoke is provided, wherein furthermore at least one stator winding with a first winding section and a second winding section is provided and the first winding section is fixed close to the stator tooth and the winding section is arranged extending freely from the stator segment. DE 10 2007 054 719 Al, DE 10 2010 037 588 A1 and WO 2014/124687 Al disclose further stators for electrical machines .
On the basis of the above-explained stator segments, stators and electrical machines, it is an object of the invention, to provide a stator segment, to develop a stator or an electrical machine of the type mentioned in the introduction such that the above-described disadvantages of the prior art are surmounted.
One way of achieving the object for a stator segment of the type described in the introduction provides that the coils comprise second coils, which each surround the segment laminated core and which each have a second groove portion, a back portion and two radial portions, wherein the back portion of the respective second coil is arranged on the radial outer side of the segment laminated core, wherein the respective, second groove portion is connected to the back portion of the respective second coil on the respective axial end face by means of the respective radial portion, wherein the second groove portion of the respective second coil is arranged in one of the grooves of the respective edge portion.
In addition, the object can be achieved for a stator of the type described in the introduction in that it has at least two stator segments of this kind.
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 6 A further way of achieving the object for an electrical machine of the type described in the introduction and finally for a mill or a compressor of the type described in the introduction consists in that the electrical machine has a stator of this kind and/or at least two stator segments of this kind or the mill or the compressor has an electrical machine of this kind.
The first coils are embodied such that the two first groove portions of the respective first coil are accommodated in different grooves. For example, the respective radial portion connecting the two first groove portions of the respective first coil can be embodied bent in order to bridge the distance in the circumferential direction between the two grooves in which the two first groove portions of the respective first coil are arranged. Viewed radially outwardly from the axis, the winding head portion of the respective first coil is hence in particular substantially V-shaped, wherein the respective V is in particular made up of two Z-shaped arcs spanning each other in opposite directions in the circumferential direction. Hence, the outer ribs of the respective Z-shaped arc are substantially parallel to one another and aligned in the axial direction while the two middle ribs of the two Z-shaped arcs are bent in opposite directions to one another in the circumferential direction. As mentioned above, the first coils are also called a two-layer winding, in particular a corded two-layer winding.
In this case, the two first groove portions of the respective first coil can both be arranged in grooves of the central portion, wherein alternatively one of the two first groove portions can be arranged in the central portion and the other
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 7 one of the two groove portions of the respective first coil can be arranged in one of the two edge portions.
Also provided are second coils, which are also called toroidal coils and in particular differ from the first coils in that they only have one groove portion, namely the respective second groove portion. This is usually associated with the fact that the respective second coil has a back portion arranged on the radial outer side of the segment laminated core so that the respective second coil surrounds the segment laminated core. Hence, the respective toroidal coil surrounds the segment laminated core in a plane spanned by the axial direction and a radial direction.
In this case, the proposed stator segment or stator is in particular subject to the following considerations.
The winding head does not contribute to the creation of torque. However, it is necessary to connect the forward conductors electrically to the return conductors. If the forward conductor is characterized by a magnetic north pole, the return conductor must be characterized by a magnetic south pole. Otherwise there would be an increase in the current and, at least theoretically, the total torque would be zero.
It is possible completely to dispense with the torque-creating effect of the return conductor. Then, the inactive return conductor has to be returned in a region of the machine cross section to the other side of the machine where it cannot result in the creation of torque. This requirement is met outside the stator yoke if the stator lies outside and surrounds the rotor.
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 8
This is in particular achieved by an arrangement of one or more coils arranged in a toroidal shape around the stator yoke or the segment laminated core. This basic winding arrangement is known as a toroidal winding or toroidal coil. It has been investigated with small machines designed as either radial flow machines or axial flow machines and can provide electric power smaller by several orders of magnitude than the proposed stator or the proposed electrical machine. With said small machines, the stator yoke is usually wound directly as is also conventional with toroidal core transformers.
Such small machines are, for example, known from the following: WO 99/019962 Al, US 4 563 606 A, EP 2 017 945 Al, US 4 103 197 A, EP 1 324 472 A2, WO 02/089291 A2, wherein these partially also provide for the encapsulation of the stator, for example with epoxy resin.
No documents from the prior art disclose the production and use of toroidal coils in large machines, i.e. in particular in the case of stator segments, stators or electrical machines with an electric power of at least 1 MW.
The advantage compared to conventional coils used to date in large machines is the simple design of toroidal coils and in particular the use of toroidal coils in order to avoid coils covering several segments. They are, for example, wound about four mandrels arranged in a rectangle.
In particular, when it is not necessary or possible for the rotor to be introduced through the stator bore, it is advantageous to use toroidal coils as this usually requires the yoke to be divided into at least two segments. This is
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 9 because toroidal coils cannot usually be inserted in an enclosed stator yoke.
Although the proposed use of toroidal coils has several advantages, it also entails a few disadvantages. For example, although with conventional, two-pole machines the inactive conductor length in the winding head is greater than the active conductor length so that the ratio of the active conductor length to the overall conductor length is about 1.0: 2.2. However, the magnetically inactive conductor component increases further with toroidal coils. The ratio of the active conductor length to the overall conductor length is now about 1.0:2.5 to 1.0:3.0. This results in an increase in the current heat losses. Hence, implementation with a special project is also decisively dependent upon the weighting of the requirements and the actual proportion of the current heat losses in the total losses. A further disadvantage is the enlargement of the standard outer diameter, which is due to the fact that the return conductor is guided along the radial outer side of the segment laminated core. Preferably, during the construction of the region around the stators, care should be taken to ensure that if possible no highly permeable, enclosed paths are created. This would cause a leakage flux to form, which would, in turn result in heating of the structural components and an increase in the load-dependent supplementary losses. Further losses can occur in the case of single-layer windings due to a greater field harmonic component.
Hence, overall, the proposed stator segment has a kind of mixed winding having first coils and second coils. This has the advantage that it enables segmentation of the stator
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 10 winding system which is very beneficial for the stator assembly. This enables problematic coil assembly outside the factory to be circumvented.
This is in particular achieved in that coils covering several segments are avoided. For example, the first groove portions of the first coils, which, depending upon the embodiment, can partially achieve a significant extension in the circumferential direction, are each arranged completely in the grooves of a stator segment. In addition to the first coils, which extend toward the central portion of the same stator segment, the second coils are provided in the grooves of the respective edge portion. Since the second coils each only have one second groove portion, a winding is created for the stator segment having no coils covering several segments. For example, the back portion of the respective second coil in this circumferential region can be arranged on the radial outer side of the segment laminated core in which the respective second groove portion is located.
The proposed stator segment or the proposed stator are in particular suitable for large electric machines since they can both be driven with an electric power of at least 1 MW. For example, the stator can have an inside diameter of at least 500 mm or at least 1000 mm. The proposed electrical machine has, for example, a rotor mounted rotatably in the stator, is preferably a rotary machine and can, for example, be embodied as a wind power generator or a drive motor, in particular a ring motor. However, in particular, with the use of the stator in a mill or compressor, the stator inside diameter can be also be more than 3 m or 5 m, wherein the stator can then, for example, be driven with an electric power of at least 10 MW,
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 11 sometimes at least 25 MW. For example, a corresponding ring motor can have a stator inside diameter of about 15 m.
In one advantageous embodiment of the invention, at least two adjacent first coils with each of which both first groove portions are arranged in one of the grooves of the central portion offset to one another in the circumferential direction by one groove and are embodied such that they have a substantially identical geometry and in each case one of the two respective first groove portions functions as a top bar and the other of the two respective first groove portions functions as a bottom bar.
Hence, at least two adjacent first coils with which in each case the first groove portion functions as a top bar and the other first groove portion functions as a bottom bar are arranged in the central portion. Often, first coils of this kind are also called standard drum coils. In this case, the at least two adjacent first coils have a substantially identical geometry and are arranged offset to one another in the circumferential direction by one groove. This facilitates a space-saving arrangement of the respective winding head portions, which simultaneously avoided collisions of coils in the winding head.
In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the first coils with each of which a first groove portion is arranged in the grooves of the first edge portion or the second edge portion are substantially embodied the same as the first coils with which each of the two first groove portions are arranged in one of the grooves of the central portion.
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 12
In order to facilitate a space-saving arrangement of the respective winding head portions and collisions of coils in the winding head, the first coils with each of which a first groove portion is arranged in the grooves of the first edge portion or the second edge portion are substantially embodied the same as the first coils with which each of the two first groove portions are arranged in the grooves of the central portion .
Hence, it is, for example, conceivable for all first coils to be embodied the same regardless of whether the respective first coil is arranged completely in the central portion or partly in the central portion and partly in one of the edge portions. Alternatively, it can also be provided that the only first coils embodied the same are those arranged either completely in the central portion or partly in the central portion and partly in the first edge portion.
In this case, the respective first coil is preferably embodied such that one first groove portion functions as a top bar and the other first groove portion of the respective first coil functions as a bottom bar so that in each a standard drum coil is present. Overall, the first coils can be arranged such that two adjacent first coils are each arranged offset to one another in the circumferential direction by one groove.
In an alternative advantageous embodiment of the invention, the first coils with each of which a first groove portion is arranged in the grooves of the first edge portion or the second edge portion are embodied such that both first groove portions each functions as a top bar.
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 13
The first coils with which both first groove portions function either as a top bar or as a bottom bar are also called equally-positioned drum coils. The use of first coils, which are arranged partly in the central portion and partly in the first edge portion or in the second edge portion and the two first groove portions of which function as a top bar enables the use of second coils in the first or second edge portion surrounding the segment laminated core comparatively tightly thus enabling material to be saved and electric power loss to be reduced. This is achieved in that the respective second groove portion functions as a bottom bar thus enabling the respective radial portion to be embodied shorter. This furthermore permits a place-saving arrangement of the respective radial portions and winding head portions, which simultaneously avoids collisions of coils in the winding head.
Advantageously, the other first coils are embodied as standard drum coils so that the respective second groove portions of the second coils arranged in the first edge portion also function as a bottom bar.
However, it is in principle also conceivable for the first coils with which in each case a first groove portion is arranged in the grooves of the first edge portion or the second edge portion to be embodied such that both first groove portions function as a bottom bar.
In a further, alternative advantageous embodiment of the invention, the respective second coil is embodied such that the respective second groove portion functioning as a top bar or as a bottom bar is the one arranged in one of the grooves of the first edge portion or the second edge portion.
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 14
Such an embodiment of the respective second coils in particular enables the use of uniform first coils, wherein the first coils are in particular present in the form of standard drum coils with which one first groove portion functions as a top bar and the other first groove portion functions as a bottom bar.
In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention the second coils with a respective second groove portion functioning as a bottom bar are embodied flat in a plane.
Hence, the second coils with a respective second groove portion functioning as a bottom bar can each have comparatively short radial portions so that they surround the segment laminated core comparatively tightly thus enabling material to be saved and electric power loss to be reduced. This furthermore permits a place-saving arrangement of the respective radial portions and winding head portions, wherein simultaneously collisions of coils in the winding head are avoided. In this context, the flat embodiment means that the respective second coil can, for example, be laid flat on an even surface and hence lies in a planar fashion.
In a further, alternative advantageous embodiment of the invention the second coils with a respective second groove portion functioning as a top bar is embodied in a double ν'-shape such that the respective radial portion is angled with respect to the respective back portion and the respective second groove portion.
The respective back portion and the respective groove portion are preferably arranged substantially at the same position in the circumferential direction. The respective V-shaped
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 15 embodiment can, for example, be considered to be a bend in the respective radial portion in the circumferential direction with respect to the respective back portion and the respective groove portion. Since both radial portions on both axial end faces are embodied in such a V-shape or bent, when viewed in the radial direction, a double V-shaped embodiment of the respective second coil is provided.
Such an embodiment of the second coils with a respective second groove portion functioning as a top bar keeps space free in the axial extension of the respective second groove portion, which, for example, is available for the winding head portions of the first coils arranged partly in the central portion and partly in the respective edge portion.
In this case, the two radial portions of the respective second coil can point or be bent toward the segment boundary, wherein advantageously second coils with a respective second groove portion embodied or functioning as a bottom bar are used on the respective adjacent edge portion of the adjacent stator segment. Hence, the second coils of the adjacent segment require less space which is available for the second coils of the stator segment in question.
In a further, alternative advantageous embodiment of the invention, the second coils with a respective second groove portion functioning as a top bar are embodied in a Z-shape such that the respective radial portion is bent with respect to the respective back portion and the respective second groove portion.
The respective radial portion is hence embodied substantially Z-shaped, wherein the two outer ribs of the Z are
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 16 substantially parallel to one another and hence aligned in the axial direction. The middle rib of the Z is, on the other hand, bent in the circumferential direction thus achieving a type of alternative displacement in the circumferential direction. The double Z-shaped embodiment of the respective second coil when viewed in the radial direction is achieved in that in each case a Z-shaped embodiment is provided for the respective radial portion on the respective axial end face.
In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, respective adjacent second coils are embodied such that the axial extension of the respective radial portion increases from the segment boundary toward the central portion.
This embodiment of the respective second coils enables material to be saved and electric power loss to be reduced. This is in particular enabled in that the winding head portion of the respective first coil is embodied bent, i.e. substantially V-shaped when viewed radially outwardly from the axis so that the first coils arranged in the respective edge portion, in particular in the vicinity of the segment boundary, require comparatively little space in the axial extension of the respective first groove portions for their respective winding head portion. This enables the axial extension of the respective radial portion of the second coil with a respective second groove portion arranged in a groove in the vicinity of the segment boundary to be embodied as particularly short.
In principle, the first coils require more space from the segment boundary toward the central portion in the axial direction for the respective winding head portion so that the respective second coil is correspondingly embodied such that
PCT/EP2015/077639 / 2014P20740WO 17 the axial extension of the respective radial portion increases from the segment boundary toward the central portion.
In this case, it is in principle possible for the respective second coils to be embodied flat, angled or bent, as explained above .
The following describes and explains the invention in more detail with reference to the exemplary embodiments shown in the figures, which show: FIG 1-3 FIGs 4-6 FIGs 7-8 FIG 9 FIGs 10-12 FIG 13 coil, FIGs 14-16 FIGs 17&18 stator segments and coils according to the prior art, a first and a second exemplary embodiment of the proposed stator segment, a first and a second exemplary embodiment of a second coil, a third and the second exemplary embodiment of the proposed stator segment, a fourth and the second exemplary embodiment of the proposed stator segment, a third exemplary embodiment of a second a fifth and the second exemplary embodiment of the proposed stator segment, and an exemplary embodiment of a first coil.
Figs 1 to 3 show stator segments and coils according to the prior art as already described above.
Figs 4 to 6 show a first and a second exemplary embodiment of the proposed stator segment, wherein Fig 4 depicts a radially outward view, Fig 5 a perspective radially outward view and

Depicted in each case are portions of two adjacent stator segments each having a segment laminated core 1, wherein the two stator segments abut one another on a segment boundary 4. In this case, the respective segment laminated core 1 has a first edge portion 2 and a second edge portion 3 each of which is arranged on a corresponding segment boundary 4 to the respective adjacent stator segment. Furthermore, the respective segment laminated core 1 has a central portion 5, which is arranged between the respective first edge portion 2 and the respective second edge portion 3. In this case, the segment laminated core 1 depicted on the right or left in Figs 4-6 should be considered as belonging to the first or second exemplary embodiment of the proposed stator segment.
The respective stator segment furthermore has a plurality of coils each of which have at least one groove portion and which are explained in the following. The respective segment laminated core 1 has grooves 6, which extend in the axial direction and are radially inwardly open, as indicated in Fig 5. In this case, the grooves 6 are arranged offset to one another in the circumferential direction and embodied such that in each case two groove portions can be arranged therein in the radial direction one on top of the other with the radially inwardly arranged groove portion functioning as a top bar 7 and the radially outwardly arranged groove portion functioning as a bottom bar 8.
Said coils include first coils 9, which each have two first groove portions 10 and two winding head portions 11, wherein the two first groove portions 10 of the respective first coil
